After Caesar’s death, Antony shook hands with the conspirators & said “ I doubt not of your wisdom. Let each man render me his bloody hand .” Tricking the conspirators into a false sense of trust and respect for Caesars death. In truth Antony was going to make the public turn against Brutus and the conspirators.

The ability to persuade people is an important element in becoming a good leader in which he possessed.

8. “Lay to rest all ones hardships. For at the end of the day the sun will dawn. We All Still Will Be Men . 6. Antony shows many capabilities & characteristic elements in leadership. He is noble & caring to the people of the country by his actions. He listened to the people & what they had to say finding death of leader right but murder unjust. He also acknowledges his own mistakes & others after asking Caesar for forgiveness of joining his killers & mentioning good deeds Caesars left behind in will. A leader is many things but one who judges his own self before others. Willing to stand or; when others will not. Proud but not self lead. Is passionate yet just but not righteous. Antony is many things but he definitely is a leader.
